Biology

Physiology

Teddiursa are small, mammalian Pokémon that resemble bear cubs. They have short, orange-brown fur that covers their body, except for their mouth and the crescent moon marking on their heads, which are a light tan. They have small, round bodies with short limbs and a short, puffy tail. They also have circular eyes with blue irises, three claws on their forepaws, and two on their feet, on which there is a circular yellow paw-pad on the underside. Teddiursa are reminiscent in appearance of teddy bears.

Gender differences

None.

Special abilities

It is said that when Teddiursa find honey, the crescent moon on their head glows. They have also been known to concoct their own honey out of fruit and Beedrill pollen. Teddiursa tend to lick their paws because their paws absorb honey.

Behavior

Teddiursa appear to have a large appetite. Before food becomes scarce in wintertime, its habit is to hoard food in many hidden locations. They can be quite cunning in obtaining their food, for example charming people in order to steal food from them and tricking the people into blaming the thefts on other Pokémon. However, they have also been known to team up with friends. Teddiursa seem easily frightened and often look to Ursaring for protection.

Major appearances

Teddiursa's first major TV appearance was in UnBEARable. This Teddiursa was a sociopathic thief by pretending to be cute to humans to steal their food and blame it on their Pokémon. Ultimately it would evolve into Ursaring at the end of the episode, so it could no longer charm humans anymore.

Trivia

The official HeartGold and SoulSilver artwork is the first to correctly depict a Teddiursa licking its paws. Previous interpretations (including game sprites and 3-D models) mistakenly portrayed it more like thumbsucking.
